Re: " Our data strongly suggest that selected pts with HER2+ tumors may not need chem

Hopeful,
Thank you for the posting the article.
Great news ...now ...let's hope the subgroup that can have treatment without chemo will be discovered soon.
This is exciting news...I am sure that AA will be happy to hear that finally there are studies on pts. who can be treated w/o chemo.

News days are coming.
